When we have rigid theories about what makes people the way they are and we project our theories onto patients and clients, insisting that our reality is their reality, we do the same thing their parents did. This is the wounding shadow of authority that says, ‘I know what your story is and I know its meaning,’ and it robs the person of the opportunity to discover this. This is a risk for anyone in a leadership role.
